"Moody is no stranger to a well-told horse tale, having penned Stagecoach
West and the beloved Little Britches books. But it's this story of the knobby-kneed
colt called Seabiscuit that has won the most hearts, and is here lovingly retold in audiobook
form. Storyteller Jim Weiss narrates, using his very best talents to capture
the drama and heart of clumsy Seabiscuit himself, the grandson of the legendary Man O'War."
The Midwest Book Review
"Veteran storyteller Jim Weiss makes the listener feel he is sitting in the stands, adding excitement
to an already suspenseful story; you can't help but cheer on this spunky little horse."
Faith and Family Magazine
Who would have believed that a knobby-kneed little colt called Seabiscuit would become one of the
most celebrated racehorses of all time? Although Seabiscuit was the grandson of the legendary
Man O' War, he was neither handsome nor graceful. His head was too big, his legs were too short,
and his gallop was awkward.
During the depths of the Great Depression, Seabiscuit won against incredible odds and uplifted the
hearts of Americans from the streets to the White House. Ralph Moody recounts the thrilling tale of
the plucky horse who refused to quit, the down-on-his-luck jockey who didn't let horrendous accidents
keep him out of the saddle, and the taciturn trainer who brought out the best in both.
Ralph Moody is the author of Stagecoach West and is best known for his eight Little Britches books.
Jim Weiss's storytelling recordings have received the highest awards from the Parents' Choice Foundation, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, and the American Library Association and have been widely praised in major publications across North America and internationally.
